Abstract
In this article, some new traveling wave solutions to the space–time fractional equal-width equation are constructed with the help of the extended Fan sub-equation method. A simple transformation is introduced to convert the fractional order partial differential equation into an ordinary differential equation. As a result, the bright, dark, singular and combined wave solitons are observed for different values of two parameters. Moreover, the graphical representations are also depicted.
